WoW Forever Black Market location: Powderfuse Port and reagent prices
Find the Black Market in Riverglades, tell Madam Swyndle from Mister Graphed, and check the beta prices for Black Lotus, Arcane Crystal and Gift of Galloping.
Where is the Black Market in WoW Forever?
Head to Powderfuse Port in Riverglades, around coordinates 78.1, 51.9. Wowhead’s beta screenshots show two goblins under a striped tent. Look for Madam Swyndle and Mister Graphed, both titled Agent of the Black Market. The market is at the port, not Farholde Keep.
The reported sea connection runs from Steamwheedle Port in Tanaris to Powderfuse Port. Check the destination when you board. The map below helps identify the harbour, but it does not show a safe route through the surrounding zone for a low-level character.

Which goblin should you talk to?
Choose Swyndle for Black Market auction listings. Wowhead’s examples include revised versions of Classic dungeon-set equipment, companion pets and tabards. Talk to Graphed when you are looking for crafting reagents instead.
This distinction matters when comparing prices. A bid on an auction item and the price of a material on a merchant’s shelf are different purchases. Check the actual item, quantity and price before spending, especially if you arrived with a screenshot of a different vendor.
| NPC | What to check |
|---|---|
| Madam Swyndle | Black Market auction listings for equipment and collectibles. |
| Mister Graphed | Materials and other items sold through his merchant inventory. |
Black Lotus and Arcane Crystal beta prices
The player inventory screenshot shows Black Lotus and Arcane Crystal at 50 gold each. Wowhead’s newer report describes reagent stock without a purchase limit and also names materials such as Fel Crystal, Stranglevine, Pyrite and Frilled Lichen.
For a crafting shopping list, compare the vendor with what is actually available on your auction house. The vendor is another place to buy supplies. Its existence does not mean that every material costs this much, or that gathering your own supplies stops being useful.
| Item | Observed beta price |
|---|---|
| Black Lotus | 50 gold |
| Arcane Crystal | 50 gold |
| Gift of Galloping | 150 gold |
Gift of Galloping is a level 60 mount consumable
The Forever item record requires level 60 and describes a 10% mounted movement-speed bonus that stacks with other mounted bonuses. Its duration is 360 hours of real time, which is 15 days. The reported vendor price is 150 gold.
That makes it something to revisit later if you are working through a 1–20 guide. It is not an early-level walking-speed upgrade. The real-time wording also matters when deciding when to use one. Do not assume the timer only runs while you are logged in.
Make the trip useful for your character
Start with a recipe you already know you want to make. Write down the missing materials, compare prices, then decide whether this trip is worth your time. Buying a rare ingredient because it is available can leave you short of gold for something you need sooner.
If you are still leveling, keep your current quest route as the starting point. A distant vendor does not need to become tonight’s destination. Our profession guide can help you choose a manageable crafting goal alongside questing, and Wisp keeps your next guide step in game.
Are these the launch prices?
These are observations from the beta, not a final launch price list. We have not established how often Swyndle’s listings change, whether Graphed’s prices will remain fixed, or whether every reported item will stay available.
Use the figures as a reference when you visit. Check the current merchant window and tooltip before buying, and keep any longer-term gold plan flexible.
